About this listen

 Through a powerful story, Rivkah unpacks the painful and often hidden issue of mamzerut—a halachic status branding children as illegitimate and barring them from marrying within the Jewish community. Rivkah outlines the religious and social roots of this stigmatizing label, its devastating impact on families, and its dangerous entanglement with Israel’s divorce system. This is the first of a two-part series on one of Judaism’s most painful and morally fraught challenges. Justice Unbound is made possible by the generous support of the Gimprich Family Foundation. Mentioned in this episode: Mamzerim, Labeled and Erased, edited by Emily D. Bilski and Nurit Jacobs-Yinon. A catalog of articles and pictures of an art exhibition at the Third Jerusalem Biennale for Contemporary Jewish Art, 2017.
